KERALA, the land of trees. A big, spreading tree purifies as much air as a room air-conditioner. And the former is never switched off.

Kerala is a land of rivers and backwaters. Forty-four rivers (41 west-flowing and 3 east-flowing} crisscross the state physique along with countless runlets. During summer, these monsoon-fed rivers will turn into rivulets especially in the upper parts of Kerala.
